Course Overview
The Implementing and Operating Cisco Collaboration Core Technologies On-Premises (CLCOR-OP) training serves as the first half of the CLCOR curriculum. This training is designed to provide you with a deep, working knowledge of on-premises Cisco collaboration infrastructure. After completing this training, you will have demonstrated competence in configuring and troubleshooting Cisco Unified Communications Manager, managing user identity via LDAP, designing complex dial plans, implementing edge services including Cisco Expressway and Cisco Unified Border Element, and integrating unified messaging systems like Cisco Unity Connection.
This training, along with the Implementing and Operating Cisco Collaboration Core Technologies Hybrid and Cloud (CLCOR-HC) training, prepares you for the 350-801 CLCOR v2.0 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Collaboration Core certification and satisfy the core exam requirements for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Collaboration and Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) Collaboration certifications. This training also earns you 38 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
